Donald Trump has slapped a 20% tariff on EU goods which are imported into the US.

The US President says the trade measure will help to make America wealthy again, but Irish officials say they're disappointed with the announcement.

Vehicles are also in the firing line with all automobile goods not made in America hit with a 25% trade tax.

President Trump says these tariffs will be seen as a historic moment in history:

"It's going to be liberation day in America and you're gonna look back and say this was one of the most important days in our country."
